It lives for another year.

The old girl obtained another 12 months of freedom today. :) Needed both driveshafts doing, plus an ABS sensor. Not cheap, but less than the depreciation on a new car.

What needed doing on the driveshafts, if knocking CV joints, stripping and repacking with grease often works.

The O/S had a failed inner coupling or something. The N/S was an ABS related problem. I think.
